Chapter 4 Software & Applications

Introduction

This chapter describes the contents of the support CD-ROM that comes with the
motherboard package.

The support CD-ROM contains all useful software, necessary drivers and utility
programs to properly run our products. More program information is available in
a README file, located in the same directory as the software.

To run the support CD, simply insert the CD into your CD-ROM drive. An Auto

drivers and utilities for your motherboard.
